Desde el lado del proveedor, existen dos capacidades relevantes: ser innovador y tener capacidad de adaptación. La primera, a mi modo de ver, es la ideal ya que incluso se anticipa a la demanda del cliente creando dicha demanda a través de un nuevo producto inexistente en el mercado. La segunda, exige inteligencia para descubrir lo antes posible la necesidad de los clientes y agilidad para adaptarse a ella en el menor tiempo posible.

Modern architectural patterns like event-driven systems and microservices enable quick adaptation to changing customer behaviors. Key is building flexible integration layer that connects your analytics capabilities with engagement channels while maintaining data governance. Just like smart traffic systems, architectural decisions should optimize flow, not just capacity. 🏗️
